About Hunza G

At Hunza G, we make the world's most beloved swimwear - for everybody, through every stage of life. We are the originators of one-size-fit swimwear made from our innovative The Original CrinkleTM fabric. Originally founded in 1984, the brand was relaunched in 2015 by Georgiana Huddart, who saw the potential of this unique material to redefine modern swimwear.

Hunza G first rose to prominence when a cut-out mini dress made from its signature fabric was worn by Julia Roberts in Pretty Woman - a now-iconic moment that cemented its place in pop culture history. Hunza G's ethos of offering swimwear for everybody, designed to see you through a lifetime and all that it brings has garnered a global community of women who believe in themselves and in the restorative power of travel.

The Role

This is a pivotal role within our Operations & Wholesale team, sitting at the heart of how Hunza G's product reaches some of the world's most prestigious global retailers.

Key responsibilities:

• Collaborate with the wholesale account management team to track deliveries and proactively resolve any client-facing issues.
• Support the sales team with returns, credits, and reorders.
• Maintain reporting and KPI tracking for wholesale distribution performance, escalating risks or delays to the Head of Operations as needed.

Experience:

• 4-5 years' experience in fashion logistics, wholesale operations, or supply chain management.
• Confident working with ERP systems - Netsuite and Zedonk experience is a strong advantage.
• Proven experience managing 3PL relationships and working with premium or luxury retail partners.
